Surface is breaking up and collapsing round gully opposite Penygarreg Lane. Has been repaired once since last full resurface but has not lasted.

Needs proper repair.

  • National highways chap says they are pestering their contractors - this is under warranty along with all the others that have collapsed.

  • Bodged again after full hole appeared yesterday. Note dodgy job and drain filled with mud and tarmac debris. The gully sucker was along on Monday but clearly they didn't bother with this one.

    Outstanding for six months now.

  • No fix - evidently contractor isn’t honouring guarantee. Unless these are lethally dangerous they don’t get fixed, and even then it takes a lot of repeat calls.

  • Tarmac splodge rapidly wearing as shown - and drain now growing its own garden. Uncleared drains caused flooding.

  • Getting worse despite 10 months of bodges - NH just close reports with vague promises so it never gets done. I keep telling them not to close reports until the problem is properly fixed, and they keep ignoring.

  • Quick splodge to fill six inch deep hole - unfortunately splattering the pavement and further blocking the drainage gully. Fifth bodge this year. Will last a few weeks if that.
